     A month ago?!!!  :o AWWW Sheesh, another Jessie, and Shannon! :P  Send him to Hawaii too! ::)
Man those are nice!  If you want to have him appreciate the Agate, give him some rhyolite!  Dang he is doing great for such a short time.  Like I said, another Jessie, and Shannon!  Just don't let him see any pine trees! :P ;) ;D
